Instructions

 

1. Air Fryer Preheating

 

Set at 200°C and allow an additional 3 minutes for warming. This helps in the process of even cooking and the greatest sear.

 

2. Season the Shrimp

 

Mix shrimp with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, pepper, and lemon juice in a bowl. Make sure that every piece is coated evenly.

 

3. Air Fry Your Way to Crisp

 

Lay the shrimp out in a single layer in the basket. Air fry for about 8-10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to allow for even cooking. They're done when they're pink, ever so slightly golden, and crisp on the edges.

 

4. Serve & Enjoy

 

Top with a squeeze of lemon juice for a fresh boost. Garnish with parsley and serve with rice, pasta, a salad, or tacos for a filling, satisfying meal.
